TAKEAWAY: The BRIDGE Act, which would extend DACA, could be voted on as early as tomorrow (Tuesday, Sep. 5). It will pass the Senate. To pass the House, however, it must get 23 Republican votes. Already, 13 Republicans have co-sponsored it (and will thus vote for it). Thus, it would only need 10 more Republican votes. Of the remaining Republicans in the House, the most likely Republicans to vote for the BRIDGE Act are those who are not yet co-sponsors, but (i) who voted against defunding DACA in 2015 (13 of them), (ii) whose predecessors voted against defunding DACA in 2015 (3 of them), or (iii) who have publicly stated Trump shouldn’t repeal DACA (2 of them). We must put pressure on those 18 Representatives to vote against the BRIDGE Act.
BACKGROUND
1. Mike Coffman (R-CO) is sponsoring the BRIDGE ACT, which would enact DACA as law and extend it for 3 years. It will likely pass in the Senate, but it will be close in the House.
>Coffman’s bipartisan bill, the BRIDGE ACT, essentially puts DACA into law and extends it for a three-year period. Coffman said Thursday that if Trump ends DACA he would use procedural maneuvers to force a vote on the Bridge Act (without requiring the bill to pass committee)
>That vote is expected to happen Tuesday…Coffman believes it has enough support to pass.
>SENATE SIDE: In the Senate, the Bridge Act is co-sponsored by Sen. Lindsey O. Graham (R-S.C.) and Sen. Richard J. Durbin (D-Ill.), who have said that it would likely have the support to pass.
>HOUSE SIDE: At the moment, Coffman’s Bridge Act has just 12 Republican co-sponsors. In theory, the Bridge Act could come to the floor, and pass, if 23 Republicans joined Coffman and every House Democrat to support it.
2. Relevant Voting History & Related Actions by Republicans (See pic related #2)
>A. Per WaPo, 7 Republicans have urged Trump not to rescind DACA and said they would support seeking protections for DACA recipients.
>B. There are 13 Republican co-sponsors of the BRIDGE ACT.
>C. In 2015, 26 House Republicans voted against an amendment that would have defunded DACA. 20 of those 26 Republicans remain in the House. Of the remaining 6 seats, 3 are held by Republicans who took office since 2015.
PLAN OF ACTION: As stated, we must put pressure on the 18 Republican Representatives in question to vote against the BRIDGE Act. Below are their names and twitters, and pic related #3 also shows their Facebook and YouTube accounts.

James Miller
>Chris Smith Pretty sure he'll vote against it. NJ fag here and his district overwhelmingly voted for Trump in the election. If he supports this he can kiss his seat goodbye
Gabriel Carter
>All the pieces of shit from NY are amnesty shilling cuntbags
John Jones
New York is a highly democratic state, has been for years.
Andrew James
[Neocon intensifies]
Juan Nguyen
My two guys from NJ most likely won't sign. Both their districts voted for Trump
Kevin Cox
Congress and the Senate need to put put against a wall and shot. Rand Paul gets a pass.
Nolan Davis
Drumpf wants this tho you stupid ass Drumpftards. He's willing to sign amnesty to all 2 millions. CONNED AGAIN.
Ethan Wood
Bump!
Dylan Brown
Isn't it interesting that suddenly Congress isn't an inept pile of shit, and can get off their lecherous asses to do something for people who aren't even citizens of this country? Pathetic.
Ethan Thomas
Because the GOP cucks want their cheap labor to make their big business donors happy. Paul Ryan's district is full of white collar business workers who rely on illegals.
Chase Young
*blocks ur path
"So you're trying to extend DACA, you traitors!"
*Vetos ur bill
nothing personnel kids
David Brooks
I swear to god I can't be held accountable for what I do if they pass this but couldn't repeal Obamacare
Ethan Walker
jews gonna buy this off so shouldnt be a problem since Jews will go to any length to destroy any societys culture or heritage
Parker Morales
I'd love to help you guys but I live in OR. Bumping so some people that live where there are representatives to be called get the chance to do so. DO IT FAGGOTS.
Liam Adams
Jews have this idea that multiculturalism=the end of anti-semitism
Oliver Howard
Right there with you.
Christian Sanchez
Its having the opposite effect. I'm more anti-semitic than ever
Ryan White
They're voting on this tonight? You're a little late, bro.
Matthew Turner
this bill is great because it will get all the cucks on the hill on the record for supporting DACA. theyw ill need to defend this in their next primary.
so let's hope this goes for a vote on the floor.
don't worry about it becoming law though because Trump is goign to veto it.
Jace Lee
but he is in favor of amnesty
Dominic Lewis
lol uh huh.
>6 months everyone!
Give it a rest
Isaiah Gutierrez
I don't think this will get enough votes in the house to pass. They would need to make a more comprehensive bill like dropping current immigration levels or allowing the president to decide them on a yearly basis including where the immigrants come from to get house support.
Dominic Thomas
>cant do shit for their own citizens >will move at speeds faster than light to save illegals
I've got plenty a bone to pick with my own retarded government but this is next level. Hope you guys meant 'by ballot or by bullet' literally because you have a hefty amount of traitors running your shit that need to be dealt with in one form or another.
Jason Perry
>Jews have this idea that multiculturalism=the end of anti-semitism >if we import brown people with much more hostile views of Jews en masse, we'll end anti-semitism
If the Diaspora is really that dumb, they deserve their coming shoah by Muslims.
Julian Martin
Spam the reps and it won't.
Anthony Campbell
This was the whole point of getting rid of daca, don't be stupid. Trump doesn't want to get rid of anybody but the criminals that take advantage of our system. And that includes the human traffickers ala pizzagate and pedogate. The people in charge of these rings love laws that protect illegals without having to document anything about them so they can come in and dissapear without any paper trail. Getting rid of daca and allowing the bridge act or safe act to take over would make it mandatory to register and file for extension with updated information so no more untracked movements of people. Donald trump is the god emperor and is saving the children and dismantling the pedophile rings and the corrupt politicians loopholes they use to protect the ring leaders.
Sage this shit and all threads trying to subvert the real agenda behind this move to end daca.
Asher Moore
bump
Dylan Cruz
>If the Diaspora is really that dumb, they deserve their coming shoah by Muslims.
They never see it coming, I don't fucking get it.
Aiden Price
lol fuck, you're a piece of shit.
Bentley Lopez
It's an executive order, they can't do SHIT to stop it.
They can try to draft a new bill that does what DACA did and try to pass it through congress, which will undoubtedly have a bunch of shilly bullshit woven into it as well. Outside of this one option, they're utterly powerless.
Jacob Bell
Hey dumbass... that's exactly what these corrupt fuckers are going to try and do.
Jacob Lee
you are a fucking retard
its about politics (and it fullfills his campaign promises)
any and all repubs that try to stop him will die in 2018, especially the 13 likely "ney' votes
who gives a fuck about the people. liberals surely dont other than for slave labor for muh avocado toast!
Lincoln Lewis
Everyone, please save this image. Keep it and others like it so we can remind everyone who betrayed us come the 2018 elections.
Jordan Torres
Trump is brilliant. Let Congress do their fucking job and take the heat for this debacle. Asshat Congress dindus don't do theur fucking jobs, take off work 2/3 of the year, live like royalty, with the best healthcare and mega salaries while the rest live hand to mouth.
TERM LIMITS NAO
Christopher Adams
If these Republicans know what is good for them, they will vote it down. They're keeping people who vote for the Party of Gibs in this country.
Camden Walker
i just watched the press conference from Huckabee, and she was pretty unequivocal that Trump was looking for a whole package, not some quick fix to daca. She all but said he wouldn't sign something that just extended daca.
it's going to depend on how much push back this actually gets. MSM has a serious problem here since most people in the US do not favor amnesty. they can make DACA a hot button issue, but they run the risk of bringing more attention to it. I think what they really want is to pass something under the cover of night that opens a "pathway to citizenship" aka amnesty.
the more people know about amnesty, the less likely it will ever get done. i imagine Trump understands this. Obamacare is hugely unpopular, but the republicons still refused to get rid of it.
Nathan Sullivan
Doing god's work anons, keep it up. Best of luck with this, get those DACAers the hell out
Robert Anderson
It's beautiful, Trump is forcing Washington to prove that the USA is a One Party System just like China or Russia by forcing all these hypocritical lying cocksucking RINOs to go against they run on.
Colton Cook
Glad to hear this from Trump's team!
Justin Barnes
On my way home from work, I couldn't believe my ears. Hannity was talking to Gingrich about how Congress "needs to get this done."
WHY THE FUCK DO THEY NEED TO DO ANYTHING?
FUCK THE ILLEGALS.
THEY WILL NEVER VOTE REPUBLICAN.
NEVER.
KICK THEM OUT OF THE COUNTRY.
Ian Parker
Swamp will drain itself faster if these cucks do this. Also Trump has nothing to lose by vetoing it.
Jason Morgan
...
Wyatt Brooks
>Let Congress do their fucking job
Um, no. Congress should do nothing and let the fucking travesty expire.
>OBAMA FORCES SOMETHING THROUGH ILLEGALLY
>EVERYONE GETS USED TO IT
>TRUMP RUNS ON REPEALING IT
>TRUMP GETS ELECTED
>TRUMP TRIES TO REPEAL IT
>TRUMP NO!!!!
>CONGRESS APPROVES WHAT OBAMA DID
>OBAMA WINS AGAIN!
Aiden Martinez
Was immigration at all part of their platform when running? If so, we have more than enough ammo in the meme campaign for 2018.
Landon Morales
Honestly I'm at the point where I might support the Muslims if it comes to it. At least they have the balls to deal with marxists
Jackson Hughes
>deporting people all the time >building a wall >threatening to defund sanctuary cities >ending DACA >wants companies to hire American Yeah, totally someone that looks like they are for amnesty
Julian Edwards
They think if they appear "compassionate" they can win the gibs vote. They are clinically retarded
Parker Ward
You forgot: >Trump vetoes the bill >Congress doesn't have enough votes to overturn it >illegal aliens go home anyway
Joseph Scott
Even when you dont care about the dog its still proper to pretend you care when you shoot it. Just politics here
Xavier Hernandez
Do you honestly think that is going to happen?
Jonathan Green
clinically corrupt* FTFY
Blake Bennett
And if they do Trump will OWN them. "So why cant you act this quickly for Americans?" The script writes itself. Relax. The Congresscritters will get their knickers in a twist but you got a better chance at herding cats.
Daniel Adams
The whole point of ending DACA was to get those children legislative protection. DACA is executive overreach.
Caleb Jenkins
Trump will consider extending DACA if the bill comes across his desk, but he's not going to do it unless it's part of a larger immigration reform bill that includes funding of things like the wall.
Parker Flores
yea go ahead and do another amnesty and have a glut of people at the border and overstayed visas again. these insects, as soon as they hear USA is up to dealign with immigration, they all come here. you also have to remember that those 800K, will for SURE petition to have all their old dying spicshit family members to come in and suck into a system they didn't pay a dime into.
Jayden Morgan
Trump is an anchor on Republicans and a lame duck, it's passing
Nolan Morgan
>trumpfag fanfic Only you fags like the guy and no one cares that he is being neutered by his own party majority in the Senate and house
Landon Sanchez
I agree
Austin Carter
Why isn't Mexico funding the wall?
Leo Diaz
If it does it's getting a veto.
Nicholas Carter
So Congress can't do shit about Healthcare or a Wall, but protecting illegals they can get that done the next day?
What a fucking joke, Trump better not sign it
Owen Ramirez
Mexico will never pay for the wall directly via a builder's invoice, and Trump's campaign platform (on his site, not elaborated on in his rallies) is that Mexico would pay via increases on existing fees and new fees on remittances, visa fees, etc...
Gabriel Carter
Don't let this slide. Faggots on other threads are "confirming" it's dead when the battle isn't finished yet. Trump is giving this shit a 6-month extension. He's acting like a fucking kike right now. Just like how the patriot act expired and NSA spying was gone forever even though they just made a new act to re-enact.
Ian Mitchell
think you are confusing him with ¡JEB!
Benjamin Jackson
Because Trump can't force Mexico to pay for the wall directly.
Easton Brown
Trump could just veto this. And they don't have the votes to override a veto.
Adam Lewis
>those 800K, will for SURE petition to have all their old dying spicshit family members to come in and suck into a system they didn't pay a dime into.
yep. legalizing 800k is same as legalizing 3 million once they bring in their parents and siblings. and those are all going to be democratic voters and welfare and medicare recipients
Tyler Reed
do not rely on Trump to do shit for you, fucking faggot take matters into your own hands, cunt
